Giuliana Sgrena Alive and Well

Yesterday a group claimed to have killed Sgrena, although our resident experts at The Jawa Report accurately called the internet posting a hoax. Today Sgrena's employer claims to have seen her and she is alive and well. Notice how Il Manifesto, which is an Italian leftist paper, calls Giuliana's captors the "resistance". AFP

The Italian journalist Giuliana Sgrena, who was kidnapped in Baghdad last week, has been seen and is in good health, her employer said on Wednesday.

“A person has been able to see Giuliana twice, first on Monday then on Tuesday morning, and has indicated that she is in good health,” the left-wing daily Il Manifesto, which employs Sgrena, wrote in its Wednesday edition.

The journalist is being “held by the Sunni resistance in a zone outside of Baghdad,” the paper said, without specifying who had visited the reporter.

I've been saying from the beginning that Sgrena will be released unharmed. It is people like Sgrena who give terrorists the intellectual fuel that feeds their anti-Americanism. She is on their side and you don't kill an ally. That, or the whole thing was a hoax......

Chad also has some thoughts.

1 1. It's an insurance scam. 2. You can bet that she has a book deal line up.

7 Proprio simpatici... Anyway, she survived, but the italian agent who saved her was shot by _your_ troops... Iraq is a dangerous place, isn't it?

8 Ck, ck. They got shot after peacefully passed several American checkpoints on their way to the Baghdad airport. This outrageous incident has underlined what was already known to many - U.S. checkpoints or convoys should be avoided. Shoot first, ask later, eh?

10 Let's see. Kidnapped for 30 days....makes an impassioned plea for Italy to remove troops...... Oh, wait a minute, she works for an ultra-left publication. Other, real hostages, get beheaded. Sounds like she set the whole thing up. The blame for the security officer's death lies squarely on her shoulders.

13 Giuliana Sgrena's capture was staged. Her and the driver were attempting to commit suicide and become martyrs. Unfortunately she survived, but the truth will be coming out.

14 She blatantly stated that all Americans were war hungry, or something of the such. She's obviously never been outside of her own leftist liberal circles. I feel sorry for her. She'll never know anything beyond what she wants to see and hear. Every single soldier, American or not, is making a personal sacrifice by being there. They're leaving family and friends behind to ensure the safety and freedom of the Iraqi's as best as they possibly can. People like this reporter overshadow the heroes, so they're never known... The sarcrifices they make are never known. I'm fed up with our soldiers getting the ass-end of every news report for following orders.

15 Eva Braun, eres tu que es el puerco..tu y la familia communista cobardes tuyo...muere en tu propio mierda...its a shame they couldnt kill that commie pig sgrena...and the sad thing is ultra-lefty europe will dig all her words up as if gold.
